Gridsense - Line IQ - Overhead Line Monitoring
Today’s Overhead Line Fault Detection Needs–With Tomorrow’s Smart Grid Capabilities
Overhead line fault indicator - LineIQ
Intelligent Overhead Line Sensing up to 138kV
Smart adaptive sensing of events, load, voltage and temperatures
Intelligent algorithms to provide highly accurate, configuration-free overhead line fault detection
Provision of data that allows you to calculate distance to fault to within 200 ft.
True voltage measurement enables detection of load imbalance and provides data for volt/VAR reduction
Dynamic rating of lines using ambient and conductor temperature readings
Tested in accordance with the IEEE 495-2007 standard for faulted circuit indicators
There is no more flexible overhead line fault indicator and monitoring solution than LineIQ. No other provides advanced fault detection out of the box, and allows you to upgrade to more intelligent monitoring capabilities via simple firmware download.
For utilities, quickly detecting faults, correcting them, and restoring power to customers is paramount. Most fault current indicators show a flag or light upon detecting a fault. Some provide fault phase and magnitude with a waveform and communications back to SCADA.
LineIQ does more than just fault detection
Overhead line monitorLineIQ monitors overhead network lines up to 138kV, letting you quickly determine fault location and cause, and quickly restore power even as you prevent future outages.
At the system’s heart is an innovative, self-powered sensor easily installed on energized lines. The sensor enables continuous capture of critical performance data, including:
True voltage measurement+
Fault waveform
Load profile
Power factor
Line status and condition
Ambient and conductor tempera
